1. Write the equation:
   $$
   \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^x = \frac{8}{125}
   $$

2. Express the right side as a power of $$\frac{2}{5}$$. Notice that:
   $$
   \frac{8}{125} = \frac{2^3}{5^3} = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3
   $$

3. Now the equation becomes:
   $$
   \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^x = \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3
   $$

4. Since the bases are the same, equate the exponents:
   $$
   x = 3
   $$

Thus, the solution set is $$\{3\}$$.
The solution is $$ x = 3 $$.
